Hello

Fairly certain I have been caught by a camera van exceeding NSL.
No apologies or arguments - open A road, good conditions, no traffic, new more powerful car, allowed the speed to get away from me. I saw the van too late. On pulling my dashcam video the indicated gps speed was 84/85.

As I understand it I am above the limit for a SAC to be offered and I believe the limit for straight to court is 86.

The outcome - FPN or Court will depend on my gps accuracy vs the camera and I guess I will find out in the next 14 days or less when the NIP arrives.

I know court will be expensive but is anyone able to advise on any ban likelyhood?
Will I need to present personally and will it make any difference if I do or not?
I would be pleading guilty so would I need representation or can I doi it myself?

Thanks for your help

So what was the speed limit?

If I assume it was a 60, then if it was up to 85 it will be a fixed penalty, above that and it will be court.

Fine should be circa 150% of your weekly take home (after Tax and NI only), points will be 5 or 6, Id suggest 5 is more likely if it was just over the FP threshold, a disqualification is very unlikely. I think.

Thanks Rookie
It was not specifically signed but would be NSL or 60. I know its going to be expensive if it goes that route but it was a ban I was concerned with!
Also does one have to actually send off a licence these days given that there's no part b and points don't physically appear on the license itself?
Thanks again.

Yes you do, as
1/ some people still have paper licences
2/ it helps prevent someone giving someone else’s details and them being penalised while potentially knowing nothing about the case at all.

+1, there's enough people trying to palm off points to someone else as it is.
